"Obito, Kakashi, are these all your friends? Ah, I haven't spent much time in Konoha over the years. Hello, kids," Daiyue said with a smile.
"Hello, Uncle Daiyue!"
"Ah, hello there~"
"Uncle Daiyue! Haha! So you're the Uncle Daiyue my father always talks about! This is fucking youth!"
"I heard Uncle Daiyue is a walking Forbidden Technique machine. Could you teach me a few when you have time?"
"I think I've heard my old man say that too. The Second was in charge of inventing Forbidden Techniques, and Big Brother Daiyue was in charge of mastering them."
"Let me blow up a brain to liven things up for Obito's father, Uncle Daiyue!"
"Get lost!" ×6
"Haha, Kakashi, your friends really are..." Sakumo's mouth curved into a small smile beneath his mask.
This seemed... a little like how they had been as children...
Sakumo and Daiyue exchanged a glance, then immediately looked away.
"Father, did you kill Sasori's parents while you were out on a mission back then?" Seeing Sasori looking rather forlorn off to the side, Kakashi hurriedly turned to his father and asked.
"Sunagakure? His parents? Oh, I think I remember now. Are you their child...? Young man, I truly am deeply sorry about what happened to your parents... I'm willing to make amends to your family." At that, Sakumo's gaze grew resolute, and he bowed to Sasori.
"It's all right, sir... It happened during the war... My grandmother told me about it... No one was to blame..." Sasori hastily shook his head and spoke dejectedly.
"All right, young man. Your name is Sasori, isn't it?" Having watched the whole exchange, Daiyue turned to Sasori with a smile.
"Yes, yes. Hello, Uncle Daiyue." Sasori nodded.
"Then, do you happen to have anything belonging to your parents with you?"
